In the reaction 3Br(2)+6CO(3)^(2-)+3H(...

In the reaction
`3Br_(2)+6CO_(3)^(2-)+3H_(2)Orarr5Br^(ө)+BrO_(3)^(ө)+6HCO_(3)^(ө)`

A

`Br_(2)` is oxidised and `CO_(3)^(2-)` is reduced.

B

`Br_(2)` is reduced and `H_(2)O` is oxidised.

C

`Br_(2)` is neither reduced nor oxidised.

D

`Br_(2)` is both reduced and oxidised.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
It is a disproportionation reaction in which `Br_(2)` is both reduced and oxidised. The oxidation state of `C` in both `CO_(3)^(2-)` and `HCO_(3)^(ө)` does not change.
